was developed that Haskell had sold the
property for 5000, instead of S. 600, and

New YORK, October I3th.-[Special J.
Edison has perfected his photograph,
which is intended to largely take the place
OF stenographers. The Edison Company
has factory where the machines are being
made. The company claims that the ma
chine will reproduce the voice so clearly
and accurately that the words cannot be
misunderstood. The owner of a machine
merely has to talk into it, as he would into
telephone, and when he is through his
typewriter can ungrind his remarks and
materialize them on paper. The public
may have chance to buy two kinds of
monographs. The American Graphophone
Company is also preparing to get out ma
chimes to take the place of stenographers.
This company was organized in Washing
ton six months ago. and is working under
the patents of Alexander G. Ball and Sum-
ner Taintor. The Edison Company think
the other company's machine may be an
infringement OF the Edison phonograph.
